Hello!
Oct 6th is 60 days out from my WDW trip in December. :mickey: I live in the Central Time Zone and I thought I had heard that the time you can add FP+ ressies depends on the time the park closes that day, but in EST. My question is: can I log on and try to make them starting at 11:01PM CST, if the park closes at 12:00AM on Oct 5/Oct 6, or will I have to wait until 12:01AM CST (so, officially Oct 6th for me, in the CST). Does this make sense?

Any advice is appreciated- we have not been to WDW since the inception of the FP+ system (last trip was ICOT 15 in Oct 2012!)

Thanks!!!

I believe you can begin making your fastpass + reservations at midnight, eastern time, regardless of when the parks are scheduled to close.

Yep, my 60 day mark is today and I was on at 12:00am Eastern time last night(11pm by me) and after refreshing a few times, I was able to make my selections! It went fairly well, Seven Dwarfs Mine Train filled up quickly, so if that's a priority, go to the day you want to ride first, and have a back up plan! I tried for our first day in Magic Kingdom and it only gave me afternoon times, which didn't work for us. Good luck!
